Change permissions on log files after mongod/mongos launch #733

Closed p-mongo closed 5 years ago

p-mongo commented 5 years ago

When my mongod/mongos processes launch, they set permissions on their log files to 0600. This makes logs unreadable by other users which is what I do (mongo daemons are running as their own user, I log in as another user).

Is it within the scope of mlaunch to adjust log file permissions after it launches mongo processes?

I was informed of https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/parameters /#param.honorSystemUmask which should accomplish this.
